I've brought it up with the other mods. We'll update as soon as we have something solid, i.e., have the right people and files in place.
I'm interested, as always

Count me in. I had a lot of fun with it last year."I look at the stars. It's a clear night and the Milky Way seems so near. That's where I'll be going soon. "We are all star stuff." I suddenly remember Delenn's line from Joe's script. Not a bad prospect. I am not afraid. In the meantime, let me close my eyes and sense the beauty around me. And take that breath under the dark sky full of stars. Breathe in. Breathe out. That's all."

Quoth Kristev View PostI've never done it. Is it fun, and how much does it tend to end up costing?
Note that the cards need not be XMAS-specific, nor even holiday specific at all – They are really just something to send out to fellow CS'ers to brighten their day. They need not even be greeting cards, per se; home-made and hand-drawn or printed are fine, ditto postcards, etc. Some folks include little bonus items such as stickers or tiny little ornaments, but nobody is required to.
Our one requirement is that everyone who signs up MUST send out a card/etc to everyone else on the list; the only real penalty for not sending any out at all is not being allowed to participate going forward, though we do allow for unexpected circumstances. We have an initial sign-up period, and then we allow 3(ish) weeks to change your mind with no excuse required, but if you're still on the list as of the last opt-out day, you're expected to send something out within a reasonable time frame. The final cards have often arrived as late as February, especially for international missives.
Quoth csquared View PostJust hope no one sends metallic glitter.
